It is always so gratifying when guests choose Moosehead Lake as a destination. Many visitors announce that they are coming back because they have so many more sights they want to see.

Last year, I put together an example of an 8 day itinerary.

For those of you who missed it, I am revisiting it:

Mt. Kineo

Day 1: Seaplane Ride:Moosehead Lake is the biggest sea plane base east of the Mississippi, so take in the massive Moosehead Lake by viewing it from a seaplane.

Fall Foliage & Wildlife Tours

Day 2:Moose Safari: Take a guided tour by an expert Maine Guide to a remote area where you will then board a canoe. You will observe wildlife such as moose, loons, river otters and bald eagles. Many times the moose are actually swimming right in front of you!

Day 3: Take a 30 minute scenic drive to a boat launch where you will board a boat taxi and take a short ride to historic Mount Kineo. Take one of the various paths (depending on your ability) to the top where the views are magnificent!

Day 4: Take a relaxing cruise up Moosehead Lake on the historic steamboat the Katahdin.

Day 5: Take a picnic lunch and hike to a magnificent gorge called Gulf Hagas (also called the Grand Canyon of Maine). We alsooffer Guided Waterfall Tours.

Day 6:White Water Rafting: The Moosehead Lake Region is situated between 3 white water rafting rivers, so choose a ½ day or whole day trip on one of the various leveled rivers by a licensed Maine white water guide.

Day 8: Fishing: Moosehead Lake and the surrounding lakes and rivers offer a multitude of fishing choices. Local outfitters and guides will gladly plan a day trip and take care of all the details for you.
